Shortly after Xiang Hongxuan set off, Shen Jinyao also led the team to set off.

It is late at night now. If we keep going, we will reach Longzhou by dawn.

Before setting off, Xiang Hongxuan had already agreed to wait for the gathering in Quzhou.

The deputy general and Shen Jinyao each led a team, and the two captains each led a team.

According to Xiang Hongxuan's opinion, everyone cannot appear in front of the people of Quzhou separately.

……

Qiang princess's mansion.

A man and a woman were sitting in the main seat in the lobby.

The woman was wearing Qiang clothes, which were very luxurious.

I saw that her makeup was very beautiful, and when I looked closely, I saw that her eyes were always looking at the man sitting next to her.

The man sitting next to her was squinting at the guards kneeling on the ground.

"Say it again."

Hearing the man's question, the guard kneeling on the ground couldn't help but tremble.

"Your Highness, there has been no news from Kyushu yet."

The woman glanced at the man and then asked, "Is there no news from the Red Flame Gang?"

The guards shook their heads.

"Reporting to the Grand Princess, news of the Red Flame Gang has usually arrived at this time."

"For the past seven days, we have received reports on Xiang Hongxuan's casualties, but today..."

The man snorted coldly after hearing this.

"I knew he wouldn't just sit there and take the beating. Keep sending more people!"

The man's voice was very cold, and the guards knew that he was a prince from Kyushu.

This man abandoned his country and attacked his father and brothers. You can imagine how ruthless he is.

but……

The eldest princess didn't know what kind of love potion the second prince of Jiuzhou Kingdom had given her, which not only made the second prince live in the princess's mansion.

He even deceived his superiors and subordinates to save the life of the second prince.

Now the eldest princess often goes in and out of the military tent of the princess's mansion with the second prince.

Every member of the Qiang royal family maintains an army.

But it was harmless before, and the emperor turned a blind eye to it.

Since the emperor's death, several princesses and princes have been fighting for the throne openly and secretly.

More and more counselors were coming in and out of the princess's mansion.

The second prince sitting on the seat, Zhao Chengyun of Jiuzhou Kingdom, glanced coldly at the guard kneeling on the ground.

He smiled and said, "Princess, it seems your guards only listen to you."

The princess smiled gently at the second prince and said softly, "Brother Yun, don't be angry."

The second prince smiled but said nothing.

The eldest princess said sternly, "The Second Prince's orders are my orders. I dare not disobey."

The guards quickly lowered their heads and said, "Grand Princess, we dare not."

The eldest princess continued, "Then why don't you just follow the Second Prince's instructions?"

"Yes!"

After the eldest princess finished speaking, she turned to the second prince and smiled back: "Brother Yun, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, but Jing'er is not a she-devil."

The Second Prince, Zhao Chengyun, smiled and said, "Jing'er knows. It's Jing'er's character that I admire most."

The eldest princess smiled softly, picked up the wine glass and said, "Come on, Brother Yun. Let's continue drinking."

The guards got up from the ground at the right time and walked out in disgrace.

"Boss, what on earth happened to our princess?"

"That's right, why did the princess suddenly believe in this second prince?"

"Bah, what second prince? He's already been apprehended by the Jiuzhou Kingdom, so how can he still be a prince?"

"He is nothing more than a fleeing dog of Kyushu."

"Hush, keep your voice down, you're risking your life. This runaway dog is very insidious, don't let him hear it."

"Humph, so what if I heard it? I still have to stay in the princess's mansion... uh... ah..."

"Hey, Captain of the Guards, Captain of the Guards..."

Several guards were holding the captain of the guards. He was obviously hit by some weapon while he was still talking.

The remaining guards were all in a panic.

"Look."

I saw a guard raising his hands, his hands were covered in bright red blood.

They looked carefully and found that it was the captain of the guards' neck that was bleeding.

Someone used his finger to feel the breath of the captain of the guards and suddenly found that he was dead.

Everyone was so scared that they quickly stepped back. They looked around but didn't see anyone.

They looked at each other, then looked at the dead captain of the guards lying below, and then they ran away.

"Hey, don't you think..."

"Stop talking. Do you want to be like the captain of the guards?"

When the surrounding noises quieted down, the second prince Zhao Chengyun came out from the shadows.

He kicked the captain of the guards on the ground with a mocking expression on his face.

"Brother Yun."

The voice of the eldest princess came from not far away.

Zhao Chengyun moved his feet and then looked at the eldest princess who was running towards him.

"What's wrong, Jing'er?"

The eldest princess walked to Zhao Chengyun's side. The maid beside her took a deep breath, and the eldest princess looked at her tenderly.

The maid gritted her teeth to prevent herself from screaming.

Right at the feet of the princess...

There lay a dead man.

If she was not mistaken, that should be the body of the captain of the guards in the princess's mansion.

How did the princess do it?

The corpse was right at her feet, but she was not frightened at all.

But fortunately, the maid was able to control herself.

She knew that the second prince of Jiuzhou Kingdom was not someone to be trifled with, and even the princess had to be on high alert against him.

"Why hasn't Brother Yun gone to rest yet?"

Zhao Chengyun looked at the eldest princess and saw that she looked normal. He found her very interesting.

He smiled and said, "I feel quite bored after parting with the princess. Why don't you... come with me to rest?"

The eldest princess also smiled and said, "Brother Yun, you are joking. If you really need Jing'er to accompany you, Jing'er will go with you, but..."

Zhao Chengyun asked in return: "But what?"

The eldest princess smiled and said, "I guess Brother Yun doesn't want to see Jing'er, right?"

Zhao Chengyun's expression changed, then returned to normal.

"Jing'er, you know I want to be with you. But I need your brother's consent, right?"

The eldest princess did not respond, but just looked at Zhao Chengyun with a smile on her face.

"Look at me, I forgot that your father just passed away. Then I can only watch you from afar to relieve your longing."

As Zhao Chengyun spoke, his hand touched Murong Wenjing's shoulder.

He thought Murong Wenjing would resist.

What he was expecting was Murong Wenjing's resistance.

Otherwise, he would never know what this woman was thinking.

Murong Wenjing looked up at Zhao Chengyun, then smiled. She slowly lowered her head and snuggled in Zhao Chengyun's arms.

"Brother Yun still cares about me. After some time passes, I will take you to see my brother the Emperor."

The maidservant beside her couldn't help but shudder when she saw the princess and the second prince snuggling beside the corpse.

She actually felt that these two people were a perfect match.
